This story very clearly illustrates why responsible firearm ownership is ninety percent exercising good thinking & dispassionate judgement.

Bluffdale man who shot neighbor gets 3 years to life in prison
September 2nd, 2010 @ 3:56pm
WEST JORDAN -- A Bluffdale man found guilty of attempted murder will spend three years to life in prison. In an unexpected twist, serious allegations were raised against the victim just after the sentencing.
Reginald Campos, who shot and paralyzed his neighbor, David Serbeck, heard the judge hand down his sentence in a West Jordan courtroom Thursday morning. In addition to the attempted murder term, Campos was sentenced to zero to five years on an aggravated assault charge...
The judge said Campos' self-defense claim was "pure crap." He said what Campos did was a stupid, careless act that could have been avoided if Campos had called the police.
